I believe there is a Maxima package now, either in Woody or in the works. I have one installed that I grabbed out of `incoming' one day...
Package: maxima Status: install ok installed Priority: optional Section: math Installed-Size: 10640 Maintainer: Camm Maguire <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Version: 5.4-1 Depends: wish Description: A fairly complete computer algebra system. This system MAXIMA is a COMMON LISP implementation due to William F. Schelter, and is based on the original implementation of Macsyma at MIT, as distributed by the Department of Energy. I now have permission from DOE to make derivative copies, and in particular to distribute it under the GNU public license. You might also like to have: export CVSROOT=:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/cvs/emacsen cvs login <empty password> cvs -z3 checkout maxima ... an XEmacs mode for Maxima that I cobbled together from peices of the original maxima-mode. (It might work with GNU Emacs also - It's untested there.) It will probably become part of the Debian package at some point. -- Those who do not study Lisp are doomed to reimplement it - Poorly. A few months in the laboratory often saves several hours at the library. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Karl M. Hegbloom)
